COLLISION INVESTIGATION
At 1:45 a.m. on Aug. 1, officers responded to a motor vehicle accident in the vicinity of Astoria Boulevard and 41st Street.

Upon arrival, police officers discovered Balazs Pusztahazi, a 39-year-old male, unconscious and unresponsive. The NYPD’s Highway Patrol Collision Investigation Squad determined that Pusztahazi was traveling westbound on Astoria Boulevard on a 2011 Yamaha motorcycle. The operator swerved into the left lane and then attempted to swerve back into the center lane when he lost control, striking a parked 2007 Kia Sedona and a parked 1998 Toyota 4-Runner. Pusztahazi was ejected from the motorcycle after the impact.

EMS responded and pronounced him dead. No other injuries were reported.
